Finger Painting ADVENTURE...

For some reason, I have never finger painted with Luke so on Saturday afternoon we embarked on our first finger painting adventure! He made four lovely pictures that will be finding themselves on the way to grandparents soon! He had a lot of fun, though he was cautious about getting more than one finger in the paint at first! I encourgaged him to be "messy" because that is what finger painting was supposed to be all about right??? Well when his hands got dirty and sticky he said that he was done finger painting and that mama should do it! He tried as best as he could to "clean" his own hands but that didn't get him very far.

While daddy was taking these pictures Luke stood up and turned to look at me bumping me with one of the fingers he had "missed" cleaning...needless to say he thought that was hillarious!!! So in the future, we are hoping that he paints more on the paper and less on mama...well at least that is what I am hoping for! When he watches the video he laughs so hard...it makes me tear up and laugh too!!! Ah these times are the best!!!

It's a GIRL!!!

Or so they tell us....We are so excited to share that the baby we will be having in May is a GIRL!!! We were both a little shell shocked at the news, I had a feeling it was a girl, but Harley was so sure it was a boy! We had our ultrasound on Dec. 17th, but I finally got my pictures all squared away and scanned to share! Our little girl is due on May 14, 2009 but only time will tell as to when she arrives!!! The doctor told us that she was in the breech position, which isn't a big deal considering how early it is. I have an appointment on Thursday with my OB so we will see what she says...

This little girl is sure active! I don't remember if Luke was a pro at kickboxing like this one or time has just softened those memories! Anyway, everything is going great! I am feeling well and I have lots of energy thank goodness...with Luke around I NEED it!

LOOK at me GO!!!

Luke loves his vroom vroom cycle and is really, really fast! He can't reach the pedals but that doesn't stop him he just "Flinstone's it!" We went to the park in our neighborhood and had a great time riding around and playing peek-a-boo at the climbing structure!

The weather here has been really nice so we have been taking advantage of the warm afteroons and getting out doors!

Lovin' the dirty boy!!!

So this is a picture of Luke while "helping" daddy work on the truck! This kid loves to help his daddy, and Harley loves spending time with Luke as he works...the jury is still out as to Harley's efficiency during the times when Luke is "helping" daddy work, but they enjoy their time together!!! Obviously mommy was out of the house because this kid is just too dirty for my liking!!! (Notice the slightly cleaner thumb on Luke's right hand...yep you guessed it...he is a THUMB SUCKER...gross!!!)

New to this...
